CottageCutz Wedding Chapel

Hello friends!  Today's card features the CottageCutz Wedding Chapel.  You can view the wedding release by clicking here.  I cut the chapel from white cardstock and colored with my Copics.  I sponged the cloud background to create my scene.  If you would like to see a video tutorial on how I do my clouds you may view it here.

CottageCutz ~ Pretty Birthday Wishes

Good morning!  How's it going today?  I hope you're having a wonderful week, and are ready for an even more wonderful weekend.  Lorie here today to share my first project with the new Wedding Release CottageCutz dies from The Scrapping Cottage.  WOW, are there ever some fun designs, and Cottage Cutz fans have been asking for these designs for quite some time!  You're just gonna LOVE them!!

For my card today, I decided to take the dress from the wedding collection and make it into a birthday card.  Is there a lady you know who wouldn't love to receive a card made with this?  I used some lacy paper from my stash to cut the layers for the dress and I sponged the edges with a bit of Stampin' Up!  Basic Gray ink, just to give them a little more depth.  Each layer is popped up with foam dots for even more depth, and this gorgeous dress was screaming for some bling, so I was happy to oblige.  Some individual rhinestones, a rhinestone strip, and rhinestone flourishes were just the ticket to finish this beauty off.

Here's the die I used for this card:


Thanks so much for visiting The Scrapping Cottage Blog today!  I hope you have a very blessed and beautiful day, filled with all things crafty!

CottageCutz Baby Shower Gift Cards

**UPDATE**  Here is the box I made to go with the set of little gift cards.  This was such a fun projects that I just didn't want to leave it incomplete.  Thanks for looking.
 Hi everyone it's Carol with a project.  Today I would like to show you some Baby Gift Cards I made with CottageCutz dies from The Scrapping Cottage.  This is from the Baby Collection.  These are just so adorable and a wonderful set to have on hand for Baby showers.
 These cards are 3" x 3".  I used a couple of Spellbinders dies for the background.  One is the Square Fleur De Lis Nestabilities and the other is from the Doily Motif set.  I layered this with the gingham green paper.  Aren't the little button die accents cute!  This is the baby bottle die.
 This is the Baby Pin die.  I used some silver metallic paper for the pins but the camera didn't pick it up to well.
 This is the Baby Pacifier Die
Last but not least the little rubber duckie!!!  I included a picture of the 3 x 3 envelopes I made to go along with these card.   Here are the cute dies I used.  They are just irresistible!!!!



Aren't these adorable.  Thanks so much for stopping by to view these sweet little baby cards.  I appreciate it so much.  I am off to make a pretty little box to put these in.  I will add a picture of that later.  Have a great day!

CottageCutz Baby Elephant

Hello friends!  Today I have another card to share with you using dies from the adorable baby release.  I used the CottageCutz Baby Buggy and the CottageCutz Baby Elephant.  I used gingham and polka dots, my design elements, to create this card.  Blue gingham diapers and a blue baby buggy on a background of polka dots and lace combine to make an adorable baby card.


There are lots of great new dies in The Scrapping Cottage Store.  Have you made up your wish list?  Lots of fabulous dies to choose from.  Enjoy the day!
